Fodor's Review:
Celebrity chef Marcus Samuelsson may not be in the kitchen every night, but you'd never know it from the impeccable cuisine and service at this fine-dining restaurant and upscale café. The elegant atmosphere features warm woods and modern decor from a Scandinavian design team. In the café, try a two-course dinner of daily "Swedish home cooking" specials, or order à la carte to try the herring sampler, with boldly flavored selections like curry-and-apple, and vodka-lime. Hot-smoked salmon, served with celeriac puree, asparagus salad, and apple-horseradish broth is a standout. The main dining room is prix-fixe only, with a three-course dinner for $80.
